Thoughts of the War

"After long talks with Elie, here are my thoughts (and his) on what came out of this war:

What came out of this war: A sense of unity, of a well trained army working together.

The army worked as a unit - each part doing their share and protecting its flank. Artillery was there, every step of the way, and their role was critical. For fear of writing too much, I will write too little. But I will tell you that the war was run as correctly as possible, each part doing what it was supposed to do. The credit for this brilliant campaign may be taken by the politicians, but they are not the ones who coordinated - they are only the ones who will take credit."
